Session, the encrypted messaging app, has officially reached 1 million users worldwide. This milestone highlights increasing demand for secure communication.

Since its inception, Session has been driven by a mission to deliver a messenger that minimises sensitive metadata– ideal for those who would like complete privacy and freedom from surveillance. This milestone comes at a critical moment as Session is currently running a testnet incentives program prior to the launch of the Session Token.

“We’re excited to see Session reach 1 million engaged users,” said  Kee Jefferys, CTO of Session. “This milestone is a testament to the growing trust in decentralised and open-source solutions. More and more users value the freedom to communicate without fear of surveillance, data mining, or third-party interference, and Session delivers just that.”

To make the user experience even better, Session has introduced a revamped onboarding system that simplifies the process of signing up new users, restoring accounts, and linking devices. These updates are part of a wider plan by Session to constantly refine its platform in line with its growing number of users.

In addition to improving the messaging app, Session has also taken significant steps to ensure the security and robustness of its smart contracts with a recent independent audit by the renowned cybersecurity firm Zellic. These efforts highlight Session’s commitment to transparency and security as it prepares for its next phase of growth.
